Here is a picture of what I would to do:

Anything outside of the green box will be clipped.

Basically, I have a NSTextField inside of a NSView which is being used as a label for a NSImageView.

I would like to allow the user to edit the label of the image.

When the edit begins, I would like to be able to draw a focus ring or just a black rectangle which fits exactly around the text being edited.

During editing, I would like that focus ring (or black rectangle) to dynamically resize itself as the user adds or removes characters.

It would be nice if the text would wrap to a second line, but that would not be a requirement.

Has anyone played around with doing this? Any sample code out there which shows how it could be done?

I have tried to get this working with a NSTextField, but have been unable.

Thank you.
